There is detailed, heavily documented book by Gar Alperovitz, The Decision to Use the Atomic Bomb (Vintage Books, 1996), that argues that Japan was ready to surrender, was sending peace offers through the Russians (Russia had not yet declared war on Japan

Sorry thats just Bull S***, No mention is never made of the thousands of front line troops,still intact in the CBI,China Burma India, (some of them had still refused to surrender for months following the official end of the war.

No mention of the Japanese pulling most of their first rate troops and planes back to their home islands or the preparations being made for the Invasion{aircraft and armaments being moved in to caves/bunkers dug into mountain sides(dug by allied POW slave labor)children being trained as human weapons or the Kill All order given concerning allied POWS and Internees

Just more Anti American propaganda by people with a agenda
